These delicate gloves, with their traditional Peacock Feather lace pattern at the cuffs, are a traditional take on a modern theme. O’Neill notes that “because the pattern repeat is so wide, there is a large variance between sizes. If you would like a size small mitt, or a mitt that falls between the medium and large, try knitting the medium or large size respectively on a size 1 (2.25mm) needle, getting 8 sts to 1” (2.5cm).” Left and right thumb placement are described separately for the ease of the knitter.
